🙏Happy Ganesh Chaturthi 🙏
Churma Laddu is the authentic sweet recipe from Rajasthan and Gujarat state in India. It is sweet prepared from jaggery, ghee (clarified butter), and coarsely ground whole wheat flour.
There are different variations of this sweet. A lot of people make Churma laddu in pure Ghee. They even fry the churma muthiya (Dumplings) in ghee.
Some people make it with sugar and some make it with jaggery. We have been using jaggery for years and I prefer it that way.
There are also different combinations of flours, no right or wrong combination though! It’s all about preferences. Whatever recipe you select, the result is always good.
Although these ladoos are originally from Gujarat and Rajasthan, nowadays they are made almost everywhere.
Today is an auspicious day of Ganesh Chaturthi and I have to make chrma ladoo for god Ganesh..🙏🙏
And here is the ladoo Recipe 😊
